The second time they met was at Kanagawa. Sakuno and Tomoka had went there shopping, but Sakuno went lost again…
Tomoka had gone to the toilet, leaving Sakuno alone in somewhere of the mall. And Sakuno was bored; Tomoka had taken a long time in the toilet, so Sakuno decided to check on her if she's okay. But she was lost on her way there.
Now the thing that has filled up her mind was finding Tomo-chan, once she found Tomo-chan, she would be save, she will no longer be lost in this mall that she had only gone a few times. And with her mind thinking of these, she didn't watch her way and dump into someone.
"Ah! Gomen nasai! Gomen nasai! Gomen nasai! …" Sakuno bow to the person she dump into and keeps on apologizing without seeing the guy's face. Kirihara Akaya sweatdropped, how many times must this girl in front of him apologize? "Iya, it's ok." He then looks at the girl's face, the long pigtail of hers, the voice of hers and that copper eyes of hers. "It's you!" he said out loud after knowing it was Sakuno it front of him.
Sakuno, after hearing the voice of the person she dump into, looks up and saw Kirihara Akaya, "Gomen nasai! Gomen nasai! Gomen nasai!" and she continues.
"You don't have to say that much Gomen nasai…" Akaya tried to calm her down.
"Ah! Hontou ni Gomen nasai!" she bows once again…
"Stop that Gomen nasai thing, I've said that it's ok!"
"Ah… hai… Kirihara-san…" Sakuno mumbles softly.
"You know my name?"
"Hai… I saw your match with Fuji-sempai in the Kaitou finals…"
"Fuji-sempai… you're from Seigaku?" he asked.
"Hai, my name is Ryuuzaki Sakuno…"
"Sou! Ja…" his words was cut off by the cell phone of his, his sempai, Niou had called him. "Sorry, I have to go, Ja!" Akaya grinned to her and ran off.
Somewhere in Sakuno's heart, she felt that Kirihara Akaya don't seems to be a scary person like he was on the court. And then… she realizes that she forgot to ask the way to the toilet.
